Being Inspired by Nature - Part One: Color
Some of us designers took a little diversion to the LongHouse gardens last week. It was nice to have a couple hours away from the office to enjoy some art and nature. It reminded me how much inspiration can be gathered from nature. One thing that really caught my eye was the gorgeous warmth that sunlight gives to colors. As a designer, I often default to using very cool color pallets. Adding some yellow or red to colors can help make products or graphics seem more comfortable and inviting.Below are two color pallets that I created based on photos from our LongHouse trip. Please feel free to download the swatches and bring them into Illustrator or Photoshop (CS3 required) for your own use.
